From Amazon bestselling author Rachael Chadwick comes a dark, addictive paranormal rom-com filled with demons, tension, and dangerously irresistible chemistry.
Eden only wanted one thing--to see her dead boyfriend again.
But when her summoning spell misfired, she didn't get closure.
She got Malachi--a demon with horns, fangs, a bad attitude, and the emotional maturity of a bored arsonist.
He wasn't supposed to cross the veil, definitely wasn't supposed to barge into her apartment, and absolutely wasn't supposed to enjoy the frantic little mortal who panics when he breathes near her.
As Eden's grief cracks open and Malachi learns what it means to feel, the line between summoner and summoned begins to blue.
And when Hell finally decides it wants its missing demon back, they'll both have to decide how far they're willing to go to stay together.

‘From the very first page, this book completely captivated me. I was instantly drawn into the story, as if the world around me disappeared the moment I started reading. The writing is immersive and compelling, making it impossible to put the book down. Every chapter offered something new to enjoy. I genuinely savored every moment of the journey. Highly recommended!’
‘Yes yes yes million times yes. This was a masterpiece for us dark paranormal romcom girlies and I ate every single bit of it up like vespa and her new diet. The plot, the characters, the humour THE IMAGINATION THE AUTHOR HAS UGH YES 10/10 ILL TAKE 100 MORE PLEASE’
‘I picked this up on a whim and did not expect it to be SO GOOD! Such an easy read. An all round good time.’
‘This book had me cracking up. Malachi was a character and a half—he’s definitely my favorite of the two. If you like accidental summonings, demons, touch her and , and forced proximity, then definitely give this one a go. You won’t regret it ’
‘I wasn’t sure what to expect with this book. I saw an advertisement for it on Instagram and thought it sounded interesting. It was great! The MMC is an arrogant prick but in the best way. The banter is hilarious. The FMC is kind of a mess but she gets it together. There is some spice toward the end of the book. There a happy ending after some drama and hijinks. All around good fun. I would definitely recommend this. I hope there will be a sequel!’
